Most of that community seems to be rallied behind <a href="https://floss.social/tags/snikket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>snikket</span></a> lately which I self-host with delight thus far. Fragmentation in feature support across clients is the biggest struggle currently. More niche, but I do funnel my WhatsApp and Mattermost messaging through my XMPP server using <a href="https://floss.social/tags/slidge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>slidge</span></a>. Been very stable for WA, have to restart Mattermost gateway regularly.</p>
